Buffer Amplifier

Buffer Amplifier
  • Used to transfer voltage but not current to the following circuit. This amplifier can be used to negate the loading effects. No current flows through the amplifier, thus there is no voltage drop through the input resistor (going to the buffer amplifier).








Inverting Amplifier

Inverting Amplifier
  • Uses negative feedback to invert and amplify voltage. Using nodal analysis at the negative terminal, the gain is found to be R2R1









Summing Amplifier

Summing Amplifier
  • Vo=Rf(V3R3+V2R2+V1R1)
  • If all resistances are equal, then the output voltage is the (negative) sum of the input voltages

Noninverting Amplifier
  • Vo=Vin(1+R2R1)








Differential Amplifier

Differential Amplifier
  • Vo=V2(R1+Rf)Rg(R2+Rg)R1V1RfR1
  • If you let R1=R2 and Rg=Rf then the equation simplifies to Vo=RfR1(V2V1)
